Finally today is the day we get to introduce SPECTACLES!
We went through our first, positive BETA testing phase and are very happy to officially announce SPECTACLES for public!
SPECTACLES provides relevant data which gives you more insights in the activity on your posts, so you can reciprocate and improve engagement between you and your followers.
Nice to meet you, we are @pilcrow and @sjennon.
Take a peek into the activity from your followers and dive into the underlying data which can’t be seen with the naked eye.
You can try on our SPECTACLES on www.steemspectacles.com.
Why do you need SPECTACLES?
Did you know your eyesight is actually pretty bad? What happens behind the Steemit curtain is simply a blur - we only know that we see our follower counter moving, as well as the upvotes on our posts. But who actually are these people? And have they visited my blog more often?
And these are not the only questions you might have been asking yourself...
Who abandoned you? Who has been loyally by your side? Who are the most influential followers, always bumping you up to a satisfying payout. Or who are useless followers because they haven’t been online in months now? What is the value of that follower who just uprooted your post? And how much did your followers up vote you each in total?
The more upvotes you get, the less insights you get into the activity on your posts. Steemit only provides you with a number and a summary of the 20 highest upvotes, but does not show you all your other loyal followers who are hidden below those first 20.
We wanted to create an application which gives you more insights in your followers and their activity when it comes to your posts. With this information, you can start communicating with your followers in more meaningful ways.
After all, Steemit is a community. It is give and take - and hopefully more give. But how can you give to the people who give to you, if you do not know who they are or how big of an influence they have on your posts are without you even realising?
This is where SPECTACLES comes into the picture. You can finally try on our fancy data specs!*
What does SPECTACLES do?
Insights: Get an overview of the activity of your followers when it comes to you and your last 100 posts. Find out which followers have been loyally upvoting you without you even noticing.
Engage and reciprocate: Once you’ve found out who are most valuable to your blog, you can put this information to good use. Start engaging with them! Steemit is about give and take. Give back to the people from you’ve been taking.
Grow: With the insights of SPECTACLES it is easier to care for your followers and grow friendships with your audience as well as it becomes easier to engage with new people.
